Drive to support at-risk students

United Supermarkets is teaming up with the Junior League of Lubbock to help food-insecure children throughout Lubbock Independent School District.

Through May 12, United will host Junior League's annual Food 2 Kids Pop-Tarts drive. Currently, Food 2 Kids provides food sacks to 950 children in Lubbock County each weekend.

Lubbock shoppers can donate toaster pastries at any of the city's nine United, Market Street and Amigos stores by purchasing and placing them in specially marked barrels at the front of each store. All donations will go toward providing food to children in LISD who are potentially at high risk of suffering from hunger over the weekends.
